    DN-01 and Diversity

    Gave back the Honda DN-01 today, it's a very impressive machine. Styling 'polarises' opinions, but I'm calling it a landmark vehicle.

    (Insert humorous landmark simile here)

    It really does redefine the meaning of 'ease of operation' in a motorcycle.

    Also got another fang on the Spyder. Man that is one fun vehicle. Sickly sick sicky fun.

    I've just had a fortnight living with a goldwing too. That is also some piece of engineering.

    The diversity of machines available is growing enormously.

    There's merit in all of them.


    Yes - this was fun:

    I didn't have a problem with the styling - a few people did. Mostly online.
